Currently, some catastrophe models used by the insurance industry account for liquefaction by applying a simple factor to shaking-induced losses.The factor is based only on local liquefaction susceptibility and this highlights the need for a more sophisticated approach to incorporating the effects of liquefaction in loss models.This study compares
